Colonial Arms Apartments

This large brick mid-rise apartment complex is located in the highly sought-after Stockade Historic District of Schenectady. With a great view of the Historic Stockade Area and Mohawk River, this turnkey property offers a tremendous growth potential. The Stockade Historic District is one of the oldest and best-preserved neighborhoods in the United States, with roots dating back to a 17th-century Dutch colonial trading settlement. Restored in the 1950s and 60s, the Stockade was recognized as New York State's first historic district. It is a neighborhood of private homes, apartments, and professional offices, making it the historic center of Schenectady. Being the oldest residential neighborhood in the country, the Stockade Historic District boasts the highest concentration of historic period homes, with over 40 homes that are over 200 years old. Settled in 1661, the Stockade area flourished until a devastating fire in 1690. However, the resilient Dutch settlers and Native Mohawks worked together to rebuild the area, making it a flourishing fur-trading outpost and a thriving commercial center. In addition to its rich history, the location of this property offers great convenience. It is in close proximity to General Electric, the Rivers Casino, restaurants, and schools. The property itself features amenities such as a campus shuttle, coin-operated laundry with washer and dryers, air conditioning, full concierge service, high-speed internet access, and more. Heat and hot water are included in the rent, and the property also provides controlled access and on-site management. Overall, this apartment property at 9 N Church St in Schenectady offers a prime location in the historic Stockade District, along with a variety of amenities and a great potential for growth.
